May 02, (THEWILL) – Lionel Messi has been suspended for two weeks by Paris Saint-Germain for travelling to Saudi Arabia without permission from the club.
This decision was made by club management on Tuesday evening, and will take effect immediately. The team has taken this matter very seriously and has followed standard disciplinary procedures for an employee’s unauthorised absence.
As THEWILL previously reported, Messi missed Monday’s training session after leaving for Saudi Arabia without permission. PSG has not released any further statement about the situation, but it is clear that the club is not willing to overlook this breach of conduct even by a star player.
This news is bound to cause a stir among football fans worldwide, with fans of Messi considered to be very critical of his treatment in the French capital. The suspension will have an impact on the team’s upcoming matches, as they fight to secure a top position in the French league.
Messi’s actions have not gone down well with the club, and it remains to be seen how this will affect his relationship with PSG moving forward, especially as he winds down his contract with Les Parisiens.
